<p>Creating a new guide is a simple process. We have included the folder <dfn>_new_guide</dfn> inside of <dfn>/app/user_guides/</dfn> which you can use to quickly make a new guide. The folder includes all of the common files you should have in your documentation. Here are the steps to make a new guide:</p>

<ol>
	<li>Make a copy of the <dfn>_new_guide</dfn> folder in <dfn>/app/user_guides/</dfn> and rename it to your project name</li>
	<li>If you are going to be using version support make sure you add a version folder (E.g. <var>GUIDE_NAME/v1.0</var>, see <?php echo $this->toc->link('general/version_support', 'Version Support'); ?> for more info)</li>
	<li>Edit the <?php echo $this->toc->link('general/setting_config_files#User_Guide_Config', 'User Guides config file'); ?> to your liking</li>
</ol>

<p>And now you are ready to start editing your files in the guide.</p>
